We found that a bunch of the employees looked to be local skater kids. And as we sat waiting for our food, we heard the kids in the back singing to their heart's content. It was the coolest experience. And the food was AMAZING.
Also, random fact....we all had to run to the restroom when we were there waiting on our food...and they had THE coolest bathroom. A map of Fernandina was painted on the walls, with all of the characters from Mario Brothers all strewn throughout the map. It was the neatest thing. I will say here that I was the weirdo taking pictures of their bathroom. I will admit it.
The last time we went through Fernandina, we saw that Townie's had closed down. Now, I'm going to be honest here...my heart sunk a little.
This trip, I found myself in the midst of memory failure, as I so often do. I could not remember the name of the place. I sat there for about 30 minutes telling KW about it, and I could not for the life of me remember the name. So, I finally broke down and called mom. I decided to look them up...and y'all, I'm so glad that I did....
Townie's had moved to another location. They are actually on the same block as the Walmart. My heart rejoiced a little as we drove up to it. The new location is colorful, and it just screams "Townie's" now.
I took some photos while I was there. And now, the bathroom is painted with sea turtles. Lol. Y'all know I had to check. The food was just as amazing as I remembered. And they've added several new items to the menu. If y'all are ever in the area, please check it out. It is incredible.
